Award-winning journalist and economist Anatole Kaletsky to join Reuters
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
London and New York, March 28, 2012--Anatole Kaletsky, the award-winning
journalist and economist, who recently announced that he would be leaving his
post at The Times of London, will be joining Reuters as a columnist this June,
Stephen J. Adler, editor-in-chief of Reuters, announced this morning.
"We're thrilled to welcome Anatole to our international team of columnists and
to be able to share his incredible economic insight with our customers around
the world," Adler said. "His work will appear not only on our financial and
professional platforms, but also on Reuters.com and in the International Herald
Tribune as part of their "Business with Reuters" arrangement."
Kaletsky, whose last column appears in The Times today, has been Editor at Large
of The Times of London, where he has written a weekly column on economics and
government, since joining as Economics Editor in 1990.
"I am delighted to be joining Reuters because I believe that news and analysis
for business readers and policymakers is shifting irrevocably from print to
digital," Kaletsky said. "I think Reuters, with its unrivalled journalistic
resources, its worldwide network of professional readers and its understanding
of technology, has an excellent chance of creating the world's leading online
news company. After 35 years of working in print media, it will be exciting to
work for a company that is constantly evolving to meet the needs of its readers
and is determined to ensure the survival of quality journalism in the internet
age."
From 1976 to 1998, Anatole was a full-time journalist on the Times, the
Economist and the Financial Times. His journalism has received many awards,
including Newspaper Commentator of the Year, Economic Journalist of the Year,
European Journalist of the Year and Specialist Writer of the Year.
Anatole's recent book, Capitalism 4.0, about the new model of capitalism
emerging from the Global Financial Crisis, was nominated for the BBC's Samuel
Johnson Prize. His 1985 book, The Costs of Default, was the first detailed cost-
benefit analysis of sovereign debt defaults and influenced the resolution of the
Latin American debt crisis via Brady Bonds.
Anatole was educated at King's College, Cambridge, where he gained a first-class
degree in Mathematics, and at Harvard University, where he was a Kennedy Scholar
and received an MA in Economics. He is an honorary Doctor of Science from the
University of Buckingham.
